Cannot install VmPlayer won't uninstall the previous b/c
Help
I had a problem this morning when my PC hung up while has been updated to VMPlayer. Now, after the reboot, etc, I can't update VMPlayer, the message being: the MSI "D:\TEMP\vmware_1336072165\vmware player.msi failed.
I tried to uninstall VMPlayer via Control Panel and get "MSI failed.
I tried 'repair' under control panel and he tells me to repair using original VMPlayer installed, which of course fails with the error.
How can I get VMPlayer uninstalled or upgraded to the new version, so it can work?
Right now, it won't work at all.
Thank you.
You don't mention what your host is the OS, but if it is Windows XP or Windows 7 you might do a system restore to a restore point before you had the problem with the drive.
Then you have a good chance to just remove cleanly.

install flash player gpo 11.4 - won't uninstall the previous version
I created a GPO and it fits correctly in flash player 11.4 on some machines, however, on machines with some earlier versions of flash 10.x, the GPO does not install version 11.4. If you restart the computer on the problemmachines, during the object GPO appying settings of the computer that you actually see "install adobe flash player active x 11.4..." but it does not install. In the Panel, the old version 10.x who was deported via GPO is always there. I do not have the GPO or communs\Install for the 10.x version, it has been deleted by mistake.
It's the error in the log of the applications on the computer:
Product: Adobe Flash Player 11 ActiveX - error 1714.The older version of Adobe Flash Player ActiveX 11 cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group. System Error 1612.
Even if I try the Manual uninstallation of Adobe, I can't yet install version 11.4 of group policy. Any ideas anyone please?
Adobe - do not it lasts!
The only solution that worked for me was to define a PPM in the GPO that removes Adobe Flash Player Active X 10 registry keys (2 of them), then the version 11.4 installed through the GPO.

Ive bought and downloaded adode acrobat Pro DC and its now asking me for the previous issue. I don't have it. He told me to uninstall the previous version of adobe so I did I don't have the password for the trail version more. How can I fix? I can't open any pdf on my computer now.
If you have purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro DC as an upgrade, then a serial number of the previous version which you have like Acrobat X or XI. If in the case where you have not bought one of these in the past, then you must buy Acrobat Pro DC as full version (US $449.00).
In this scenario, you can return the version upgrade and purchase the full version. To return the Contact Customer Service
